	Nail on the head!  I recently put together a sweet Apple IIgs w/
perfect condition components, 500MB HD, 5.25MB RAM, etc.  I could not
have afforded all that on the GS I got in '88.  And I just ordered parts
to a sweet Amiga 500 system so I can get back into that fun as well. 
$250 got me a NeXTstation Turbo Color w/ 21" color screen a few months
back.  All good.  That thing was like $7K back in the day!
